I really really like this one of yours. The selective desat rocks. VERY nice.

wow.. this placed way lower than I would have guessed.. must have been the selective desat. Great shot.

One of those occasion where selective desat works.

Just not predictable...other macro items just too the same.

I really like this one! I love your use of selective desaturation and the greens really pop in this image. Nice twist on this idea. Great job!

I think the handcoloring actually hurts this picture instead of helping, it just feels odd for this pic.

I like the way you did this. The selective detaturation here appeals to me. It makes the detail in the green subject really stand out. I think it's a very pleasing composition -- and I don't even like cactus-- at all! But I really do like this photo.
